WinDbg Preview

IMPORTANT: This app works with Windows 10 Pro and Home but not with Windows 10 S.
We've updated WinDbg to have more modern visuals, faster windows, a full-fledged scripting experience, and Time Travel Debugging, all with the easily extensible debugger data model front and center. WinDbg Preview is using the same underlying engine as WinDbg today, so all the commands, extensions, and workflows you're used to will still work as they did before.

Review title of RennieBu doesn't survive executable restart

The ability to set a bu breakpoint and then restart the execution is a critical feature which works on the existing windbg client. This was literally the first thing I tried and it doesn't work, so I am putting aside until this is addressed.

Microsoft Corporation responded on 9/1/2017

Thanks for the feedback. Persistence of breakpoints across session and debugger restart is something we're handling different with the Preview but we don't have ready to release quite yet. If you file feedback in the Feedback Hub (http://aka.ms/dexex) with how you expect the behavior to work, it'll let others vote in agreement with you and help drive our decisions and priorities.

Review title of MattEasily troubleshoot bluescreen (BSOD) errors!

First time using WinDbg, and I was able to easily figure out how to load a memory dump file and identify the faulting driver causing a bluescreen error (BSOD). This is a great tool, and one I see myself using a lot in the future.

Review title of JeffThis is amazing

Really hard debugging problems need windbg, that's just a fact of life. fortunately installing windbg no longer requires you to escape from a labyrinth of dead links, nonsensical redirects and sdk installers that don't actually install windbg if you're not careful. Good work whomever decided to package windbg into the store. You have make my life significantly better.
